Meera, Michelle and Liz discuss their love of Sam's Steakhouse: from the unmatched vibes, to the shrimp cocktail, to their classic wedge salad. They discuss the rise of the dirty martini and how it has inspired a wave of savory cocktails around town using ingredients like tomato, miso, chicken stock or even crab butter.
